Don’t Miss the Bliss!

Rendez-Vous Winery, partnering with Art Obsessions Gallery, recently added a fine art gallery adjacent to its tasting room. James’ vineyard work is among the beautiful artwork on display at this new venue. Plans to add a bistro with live music are in the works as well. Located in the historic Old Sugar Mill, owner Larry Dizming has a lot in-store for you when it come to fine wines. You won’t want to miss the bliss served in this friendly tasting room environment. The lovely Delta breeze is enough to draw me back, but I guarantee with all these new additions this is certainly to become a California destination spot. Good food, great wine, live music, and of course, the ART!

SouthwestArt Discovers James

Selected as a Nationally Emerging Artist, Jim’s work will be featured in the September Issue of SouthwestArt Magazine. We congratulate him for all his dedication in perfecting his work. Please check out the article posted here below.

 

Nationally Emerging Artists–discover today’s emerging artists

There can be many stages in the development of artists’ careers. Oftentimes, artists begin by both taking classes and showing their work on a local level, perhaps in local art centers, coffee shops, or weekend art festivals. They might then move on to having a more regional profile, in which they get the opportunity to be represented by a gallery in a nearby metropolitan area or have their work accepted into larger shows. And then, at some point down what may be a long road, they find themselves emerging onto the national art scene. These are the artists we feature in the following pages—we hope you enjoy their work.
